U need to flash rom with odin i just dont know if "re-partition" need to be ticked and pit 512 chosen? can somone tell? also phone efs clear need to be ticked?

if I'd wanna do it, directly, i flash my phone from the top... in fact, i've had to do it some times...

Yes you can, I already did too.
Flash the phone directly with Odin:

and choose one of this firmware:

You need be register there to download and after you find all official firmware and how you flash too.

Ok.. Thanks guys... Will try it on weekday and post the result ...

download this (latest GB release) :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19506141/GT_I9000_XWJVH_XXJVO_NEEJV3_Sbl.exe
extract files (.EXE) and put the files in right place in odin.
check repartition, put phone in dowload mode and then connect with odin.
you can root your phone with :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19506141/Gingerbread-GT-I9000-XWJVH-stock-kernel+hacks.tar
After your phone reboots, put in download again and put the file you just dowloaded in PDA (make sure repartition is NOT checked !!)
also odin 1.3 / 1.7 and samsung drivers for PC....

leave all checks as they are, do not check EFS clear or bootloader box or dump.
the only box you have to check is repartition

Got you right going to see if i can bring it back to life now.
Will post up my result.
Thanks very much guys

[Q] Lots Of Questions

Hello XDA Community,
I am an 2 year XDA veteran, so i am properly familiar with all things related to XDA.
I currently own a Xperia X10 Mini Pro and a Xperia Mini Pro....
I tinker a lot with these 2 phones. SE phones mainly need fastboot.....
I just brought a Samsung Galaxy Note(SGN) N7000 (India) a few days back and am really excited to run CM9 on it.....
But i have alot of unanswered questions.....
So i just need the community's help...
1. Does the SGN have a stock recovery....????
My cousin has a Galaxy Tab 8.9 and it had a stock recovery. I just flashed a zip to root it and another zip for CWM......
2. What exactly is ODIN....?????
The Tab 8.9 had ODIN with a Recovery but our SGN does not seem to have one.......
3. Is it safe to upgrade to official Samsung ICS......????
There is alot of talk going on in the forum about HARD BRICKING our SGN if we upgrade........
4. What do i exactly have to do to get CWM......????
The guides in Development Section by dr.ketan have me totally confused, though i have rooted my SGN using DoomLord's Kit............
I am new to Samsung devices ant dont know the way they work.....
So any help will be extremely appreciated.......
Thanks.

I used Vol down + home + power while starting up, and the phone booted into ODIN but there is no recovery.....
The screen only shows " Start Downloading"...
What is this........???/
Whereas the ODIN in Tab 8.9 gave options to flash .zips and much more......
Help please......

Thats download mode, you use with odin from your PC.... use Vol up + home + power for recovery
Download mode is mostly used to flash stock roms (afaik) and they can be found http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-N7000&r=-1#modelsa

Copy the rom into your sdcard
Install mobile odin pro and select "open file" option
Then select the rom,if you need to be rooted,then select "ever root" option
If you were about to flash a gb rom,then select both the wipes and select "flash firmware"
And you are done:good:
